CNBLUE: BLUEMING

Spring is in the air and hearts are all fluttery -- two lessons you'll learn from CNBLUE's catchy new mini-album, their 6th vol.

CNBLUE: BLUEMING

CNBLUE are back with the brand new mini-album -- their 6th vol. -- entitled, what else, BLUEMING. To which end, you could certainly say that their new tunes are blooming, as they overflow with sun-drenched melodies and one infectious chorus after another. According to Yes Asia it's a "seasonal" release featuring "various sweet love songs," so if you're looking for a spring fling, this should get you in the mood, provided you can understand Korean. (Actually, the music has that vibe to the point that you should pick up on it even without comprehending the lyrics.)

CNBLUE: WHITE EP

Following band leader Yong Hwa's solo debut, CNBLUE returns to Japan with their new WHITE EP. And it's fantastic, further evidence that CNBLUE is one of the most exciting bands on the planet right now.

CNBLUE: WAVE

It's been a year since the highly successful South Korean band CNBLUE -- otherwise known as Code Name Blue -- last released a Japanese album, but they're back in a big way with their brand-new album, Wave, which features songs from the singles Truth and Go Your Way along with six brand-new tracks.

It's been a year since the highly successful South Korean band CNBLUE -- otherwise known as Code Name Blue -- last released a Japanese album, but they're back in a big way with their brand-new album, Wave, which features songs from the singles Truth and Go Your Way along with six brand-new tracks. For this review, I'm just going to review it as if all the songs were brand new because having them in a different language does make them sound noticeably different even to someone who doesn't know Korean and Japanese like myself.

CNBLUE: TRUTH

K-Rock band CNBLUE returns to Japan with more of their high quality, turbo-charged brand of pop rock songs.

The Korean pop/rock band known as CNBLUE has returned to Japan with "Truth," their seventh Japanese single, which also happens to be the first Japanese release by the band in nine months. And, holy sh!t, does it sound like they've given birth to a new baby here, "Truth" being a ridiculously catchy up-tempo pop rocker that happens to be one of their very best songs, not that these guys ever release a bad single. CNBLUE has always put quality above quantity, which could have something to do with why they've taken nine months to produce this Japanese release.

CNBLUE: RE:BLUE

Korean pop rock quartet CNBLUE's 4th mini-album is named RE:BLUE because it represents the rebirth of CNBLUE. And, wow, what an inspired rebirth it is.

Pop rock quartet CNBLUE's 4th mini-album is named RE:BLUE because it represents the rebirth of CNBLUE. It seems they felt like they were just going through the motions recently so they deliberately set out to be more creative and expand their horizons when it came to the writing of RE:BLUE. To that end, lead vocalist/rhythm guitarist Jung Yong-hwa found himself rather inspired and was involved in writing the lyrics and composing the music for the mini-album's five new songs. Lead guitarist/background vocalist Lee Jong-hyun also co-wrote one of the tracks.

CNBLUE: ROBOT

CNBLUE have unleashed their fourth Japanese single, following their hit Japanese album Code Name Blue, and it's an immensely catchy winner.

CNBLUE is a Korean rock band that has recently been enjoying just as much success in Japan as they have in Korea. The members are Jung Yong-hwa (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Lee Jong-hyun (lead guitar, vocals), Lee Jung Shin (bass guitar, vocals) and Kang Min-hyuk (drums, vocals). Robot is their fourth Japanese single and it follows their number one Japanese album CODE NAME BLUE.
